Arbaeen propaganda

Every year many gatherings in different parts of the world are held for various purposes, such as:

LGBT prides, Munich Oktoberfest, Boryeong Mud Festival in South Korea, Brazilian Carnival and many others.

All of these gatherings happen in tight security precautions and vast media coverage.

While according to IntelCenter and International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) reports:

“Iraq is among the most insecure countries in the world”.

Thus, in one of the most insecure countries, people are gathered only to deliver the message of:

peace and truth through the largest gathering ever in the world.

Now, why the organizations such as UNESCO and Guinness have not attempted to register this peerless event.

Also, major global media kept this event

Hussain ibn Ali was a 7th century revolutionary leader who made a stand against Yazid ibn Muawiyah. Yazid was a tyrannical ruler who had illegally usurped power and was violating the basic rights and dignity of the people. Yazid wanted Hussain to pay allegiance to him, to lend credibility to his own corrupt rule. However Hussain refused to do so, based on his moral values and principles, and was killed by an army of over 30,000 whilst standing with a small number of 72.

After the Battle of Karbala, the forces of Yazid took the women and children of Hussain’s family as captive. They were paraded in chains through the streets of Kufa (Iraq) and Damascus (Syria) – where they were abused by crowds until eventually presented to Yazid and placed in prison.

Though Hussain has died, his movement still continued through his sister Zainab, and son Zain Al-Abideen. Hussain’s sister and his son defied Yazid in his own courtyard through famous sermons which unnerved even his closest allies. Eventually, Yazid had no choice but to free the captives as word spread across the region of the crime he had committed against Hussain ibn Ali and his family.

It is said that the Day of Arbaeen is the day on which Hussain’s family returned to the land of Karbala, to properly bid farewell to the fallen heroes and finally grieve for their loved ones.

The British photographer in Arbaeen

Emily Garthwaite is a 25-year-old London based photojournalist focusing on humanitarian and environmental issues.

She started photography five years ago and she has worked across many countries which led to several exhibitions and international awards.

She recently co-directed her first documentary the 40th Day in Iraq on Arba’een, the world's largest annual pilgrimage. She believes it is a cultural and practical product.

She says: “Surprisingly, Arba’een remains almost unknown to the world, and there continues to be widespread criticism of the media blackout surrounding it.

Also, as a photographer, every photo has a positive narrative for me”.

She believes aside the political issues, friendship and collaboration between Iranians and Iraqis are outstanding.

Her documentary will be broadcast soon.

Arbaeen in Africa

Zanzibar is a semi-autonomous island as a part of Tanzania.

This place is a spectacular destination for many tourists in the world

Presence of Shiite dates back to the 9th century in this eastern African country.

The old epitaphs which refer to the Prophet of Islam family in Zanzibar are the evidence of Shiism presence.

One of the most important rituals in this country is the "Arbaeen", which is known as the “Chehelum”.

It should be mentioned that it is one of the best- organized events among the other Shiite African countries and will be held in three days.

As part of this indigenous ritual, the mourners will be treated by a wide range of foods and juices followed by #photo exhibition.

Applying scents to flags and symbolic dressing of Imam Hussein (AS) horse are the beauty of Arbaeen in Zanzibar.

Documentary

The rape to Iraqi women In Arbaeen

In spite of the efforts of the Islamic media to introduce the Arba'een gathering, few media try to distract thoughts against this significant gathering.

Every year the Shiite opponent media try to boycott this peerless anniversary.

The presence of Iranian pilgrims crowd near to Iraqi border has been interpreted as an invasion from the press media such as Al Jazeera and Al Arabiya.

Also, in recent years the Saudi news agency, Al Bawaba, tried to spread fake news such as sexual assault to Iraqi women by Iranian pilgrims which raised the serious reaction of international authorities.

Asharq Al Awsat report reflected the rejection of this allegation based on the World Health Organization and the Iraqi Ministry of Health's report on the peacefulness of Arbaeen, but this report kept silent purposely.

These fake news indicate deliberate efforts to distract people thoughts from the truth of the Arbaeen event.

The false news purpose is to segregate between Shiite and Sunni mourners and discriminate between Iranian and Iraqi mourners despite the fact that millions of mourners are gathering in Karbala every year peacefully.

Abu Rayhan Al Biruni and the pilgrimage of Arbaeen

Biruni is regarded as one of the greatest scholars of the medieval Islamic era about a thousand years ago.

As an Iranian polymath scholar, he was well versed in physics, mathematics, astronomy, natural sciences and history.

He is known as the "unbiased writer" among the other countries scholars.

“The Remaining Signs of Past Centuries” is one of his early publications. This book is a comparative study of calendars of different cultures and civilizations.

Also, this book includes mathematical, astronomical, and historical information followed by exploring the customs and religions of different cultures.

In this book, Biruni says:

"On the 20th day of the month of Safar, the head of Hussein (AS) returned to where his body and was buried and buried there as well.

The pilgrimage of Arbaeen originated from that day.

This was done by 40 people of Hussein family who visited and prayed Hussein’s grave on their way while returning from Sham in current Syria”. Biruni explicitly referred to the "Arbaeen pilgrimage" in this book, which indicates the thousand years of history of the Arbaeen anniversary.

While, in public opinion, it was started by Iranians after falling of Saddam regime.

Claudia Borgia is an Italian Christian photographer who resides in Rome.

In 2013, after travelling to Iraq, despite the hardness of the trip, she stated her idea about the largest annual gathering of Arbaeen:

"I am proud to be part of spreading the message of peacefulness of Arbaeen to the world.

The path of Arbaeen is the path of truth. I came to see, with my eyes, the women who are really choosing to struggle with such a difficult journey similar to lady Zaynab bint Ali (SA).

I wanted to simply narrate a significant section of religious history which I had just a little information about.

My goal was to understand and explain this story far from any bias and prejudgment.

The spiritual pilgrimage of Arbaeen is a holy event that Imam_Hussein (AS) has invited all of his followers to attend.

I did not get a chance to go to this journey in 2012.

But the following year, the situation was as such that I believe Imam Hussein (AS) had invited me similar to many others to be a pilgrim of Arbaeen".

She also considered herself as a messenger of Arbaeen and she is interested in attending this gathering one more time.

After returning to Italy, she held a public exhibition of 35 fine select pictures in the building of the Rome photographers association.
